Vacuum Line Kit
I'm to the point where I think it would probably be in my best interest to replace all of the vacuum lines on my '70. I thought I'd ask here if any of you know of a package that includes all the vacuum hoses and where would be the best place to pick it up.
Thanks in advance,

Several of the supporting vendor here offer kits and they're (kits) probably the easiest.
When I replaced all of mine, I just went down to the local parts store and bought vac hoses - cut my own lengths...

I did the same thing with mine. Its not really too bad of a job. Most of the corvette parts warehouses will have the kits. You might give Volunteer Vette a look and also try The Last Detail. There are may schematics on the net that show the hose routing.

I installed a kit from the good Doctor a couple months ago. It had all the fittings, molded ends, and diagrams. Installed and on the road in two hours with NO cussing or bloody knuckles.
